I always find it funny when a newspaper gets a reporter to "disguise himself as black" to investigate something. Can't they just get a black journalist to do it? It's sort of like, in a magazine, a few years ago, they got a woman to disguise herself as a man to go to a bathhouse and report on what it was like... Couldn't they get a gay man to do it? Or even a straight one? It's almost like they don't trust black or gay people to be truthful about their experience, because God knows that (for example) it's so hard for a black person to be "objective" about being a victim of racism.
That's exactly what I thought. This is completely unsurprising coming from a province where political leader would call me, and people who look like me, "slant eye":
I just saw that. I decided that I'm not voting for any of the 3 main parties because all 3 of their leaders have been uttering the most racially ignorant shit these past few months. So I'll probably just cancel my vote.
